One Shining Moment

[sabach]

was first played after the 1987 NC game. I didn't know that. Here's hoping this year's OSM is colored orange.

Hey, sabach, where you been, boi?

Did you know...

CBS originally wanted to use One Shining Moment after Super Bowl XXI. The original lyrics were "The ball is kicked..." However, the game ran long so CBS axed the highlight reel and repurposed it for hoops a few months later.

You could have had Phil Simms going to Disney World while Elway cried.

Aside from 2003 the best osm ever was 1987

Barrett was the original artist (1987-1993, 2000-2002), but CBS has also broadcast remakes by Teddy Pendergrass (1994–1999) and Luther Vandross (2003–2009, 2011–). It is believed to be the last song Vandross recorded before his stroke and subsequent death.

Yes. That is correct according to SI. So who will it be?

I hope it's Black Sabbath.

We know it won't be Drake or a Judd.

Here's another report of the change.

I'll withhold judgement until I hear it, but I expect it to be a mistake.

 

[KaiserUEO]

I think they should drop it and come up with something else.

the move to tbs/tnt..whatever, is the perfect excuse to end talk of this song on this board forever.

non sense

 

[KaiserUEO]

non sense

its tradition, I get it.

but the fact that people actually look forward to it...is extremely embarrassing and quite bizarre.

 

[andyw715]

I like it.

Anyone remember Kenny Loggins and Christopher Cross in years prior to OSM? I used to hum to "This Is It" while dunking on my Nerf hoop...

 

[adk(roc)CUSE]

Love OSM. Especially in years where Cuse does well. Perfect wrap up to the 3 weeks of drama that is March Madness.

I could not tell you any of the lyrics of "One Shining Moment," although I will assume that "one shining moment" are three of them.
